For the rest of the users, this partial > support is the same as non-support. That partial support would be full support (at least on Windows) if make install didn't try to create the dirs.

Using /x/ instead of X: and : instead of ; in args to the MSYS machinery seems par for the course. > If by misfeature you mean the part that creates the directories in > locallisppath, then I don't object to that removal. But if it is > removed, it must be removed on all systems, not just on Windows, IMO. Agreed. Now, if the maintainers agree, we could go forward on that...
